Scope
The Application Guide offers product details and recommended practices for the use of the product.
The data and information provided are not definite requirements. They are guidelines to assist in smooth and
safe use, and optimum service of the product. Adherence to the guidelines does not relieve the applicator of
responsibility for ensuring that the work meets specification requirements.
Jotuns liability is in accordance with general product liability rules.
The Application Guide (AG) must be read in conjunction with the relevant specification, Technical Data Sheet
(TDS) and Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for all the products used as part of the coating system.
Referred standards
Reference is generally made to ISO Standards. When using standards from other regions it is recommended to
reference only one corresponding standard for the substrate being treated.
Surface preparation
The required quality of surface preparation can vary depending on the area of use, expected durability and if
applicable, project specification.
When preparing new surfaces, maintaining already coated surfaces or aged coatings it is necessary to remove all
contamination that can interfere with coating adhesion, and prepare a sound substrate for the subsequent
product. Inspect the surface for hydrocarbon and other contamination and if present, remove with an alkaline
detergent. Agitate the surface to activate the cleaner and before it dries, wash the treated area using fresh
water. Paint solvents (thinners) shall not be used for general degreasing or preparation of the surface for
painting due to the risk of spreading dissolved hydrocarbon contamination. Paint thinners can be used to treat
small localized areas of contamination such as marks from marker pens. Use clean, white cotton cloths that are
turned and replaced often. Do not bundle used solvent saturated cloths. Place used cloths into water.
Process sequence
Surface preparation and coating should normally be commenced only after all welding, degreasing, removal of
sharp edges, weld spatter and treatment of welds is complete. It is important that all hot work is completed
before coating commences.
Coated surfaces
Verification of existing coatings including primers
When the surface is an existing coating, verify with technical data sheet and application guide of the involved
products, both over coatability and the given maximum over coating interval.

Other application tools
Roller application
Can be applied by roller. The addition of a small volume of thinner is recommended to achieve better flow. As
with brush, it will be necessary to apply additional coats to achieve a similar dry film thickness when the coating
is applied by airless or conventional spray. Roller is not recommended for application direct to prepared metal,
and for stripe coating.

Bright colours may need film thickness in the high end of the recommended specification range to achieve
opacity.
Wet film thickness (WFT) measurement and calculation
To ensure correct film thickness, it is recommended to measure the wet film thickness continuously during
application using a painter's wet film comb (ISO 2808 Method 1A). Use a wet-to-dry film calculation table to
calculate the required wet film thickness per coat.
A wet to dry film thickness chart is available on the Jotun Web site.
Dry film thickness (DFT) measurement
When the coating has cured to hard dry state the dry film thickness can be checked to SSPC PA 2 or equivalent
standard using statistical sampling to verify the actual dry film thickness. Measurement and control of the WFT
and DFT on welds is done by measuring adjacent to and no further than 15 cm from the weld.

Ventilation
Sufficient ventilation is very important to ensure proper drying/curing of the film.
Coating loss
The consumption of paint should be controlled carefully, with thorough planning and a practical approach to
reducing loss. Application of liquid coatings will result in some material loss. Understanding the ways that
coating can be lost during the application process, and making appropriate changes, can help reducing material
loss. Some of the factors that can influence the loss of coating material are:
- type of spray gun/unit used
- air pressure used for airless pump or for atomization
- orifice size of the spray tip or nozzle
- fan width of the spray tip or nozzle
- the amount of thinner added
- the distance between spray gun and substrate
- the profile or surface roughness of the substrate. Higher profiles will lead to a higher "dead volume"
- the shape of the substrate target
- environmental conditions such as wind and air temperature

Surface (touch) dry: The state of drying when slight pressure with a finger does not leave an imprint or reveal
tackiness.
Walk-on-dry: Minimum time before the coating can tolerate normal foot traffic without permanent marks,
imprints or other physical damage.
Dry to over coat, minimum: The shortest time allowed before the next coat can be applied.
Dried/cured for service: Minimum time before the coating can be permanently exposed to the intended
environment/medium.
Maximum over coating intervals
Maximum time before thorough surface preparation is required. The surface must be clean and dry and suitable
for over coating. Inspect the surface for chalking and other contamination and if present, remove with an
alkaline detergent. Agitate the surface to activate the cleaner and before it dries, wash the treated area by lowpressure water jetting to Wa 1 (ISO 8501-4) using fresh water.
If maximum over coating interval is exceeded the surface should in addition be carefully roughened to ensure
good inter coat adhesion.

Other conditions that can affect drying / curing / over coating
Adding anti-skid to the coating system
Anti skid aggregate should only be added in the final coat, and should not be used in single coat systems.
Spread the aggregate evenly on the surface before half of time to Surface dry. Use Jotun Anti-skid, fine particle
size (180 - 250 µm), for coatings applied in 50 to 150 µm DFT. The recommended usage is 1.5 - 2.0 kg per 10
litres of paint.
Water contamination
If the wet coating is exposed to relative humidity above 85% or to moisture before the coating is at least Walkon-dry, then blushing may occur. Blushing will cause fading of bright colours, and will affect the gloss. Provided
the coating is fully dried/cured the protective properties will not be affected.
All affected areas should be lightly sanded, cleaned and recoated.
Repair of coating system
Damages to the coating layers:
Prepare the area through sandpapering or grinding, followed by thorough cleaning/vacuuming. When the
surface is clean and dry the coating may be over coated by itself or by another product, ref. original
specification.
Always observe the maximum over coating intervals. If the maximum over coating interval is exceeded the
surface should be carefully roughened in order to ensure good intercoat adhesion. Damages exposing bare
substrate:
Remove all rust, loose paint, grease or other contaminants by spot blasting, mechanical grinding, water and/or
solvent washing. Feather edges and roughen the overlap zone of surrounding intact coating. Apply the coating
system specified for repair.
Surface finish
Application of polyurethane topcoats in hot weather or on hot substrates can result in loss of gloss. Affected
areas should be lightly sanded and the coating reapplied.
Slower evaporating thinners could assist in solving the problem. To be discussed with your Jotun technical
representative.
Coating film continuity
When required by the specification, the coating shall be tested for film discontinuity according to ASTM D 5162,
test method A or B as appropriate for the actual dry film thickness.
All recorded defects shall be repaired by best practical means.
Quality assurance
The following information is the minimum recommended. The specification may have additional requirements.
- Confirm all welding and other metal work, whether internal or external to the tank, has been completed before
commencing pre-treatment and surface preparation of the substrate
- Confirm installed ventilation is balanced and has the capacity to deliver and maintain the RAQ
- Confirm the required surface preparation standard has been achieved and is held prior to coating application
- Confirm that the climatic conditions are within recommendation in the AG and held during the application
- Confirm the required number of stripe coats have been applied
- Confirm each coat meets the DFT requirements of the specification
- Confirm the coating has not been adversely affected by rain or any other agency during curing
- Observe adequate coverage has been achieved on corners, crevices, edges and surfaces where the spray gun
cannot be positioned so that its spray impinges on the surface at 90°
- Observe the coating is free from defects, discontinuities, insects, spent abrasive media and other contamination
- Observe the coating is free from misses, sags, runs, wrinkles, fat edges, mud cracking, blistering, obvious
pinholes, excessive dry spray, heavy brush marks and excessive film build
- Observe the uniformity and colour are satisfactory
All noted defects should be fully repaired to conform to the coating specification.
